Creator's Key Takeaways
I absolutely love the Florida parks, but I also do my best to get to the point.
I don't think the park has evolved particularly well in the last 10 or 15 years.
Rock and Roller Coaster is the most intense roller coaster in all the four Disney theme parks.
Rise of the Resistance is one of the best dark rides ever constructed.

Please consider supporting my channel by purchasing your Walt Disney World tickets via Expedia: https://expedia.com/affiliate/HnasM5X Disney's Hollywood Studios is a theme park at the Walt Disney World Resort in Bay Lake, Florida, near Orlando. It is owned and operated by the Walt Disney Company through its Experiences division. Based on a concept by Marty Sklar, Randy Bright, and Michael Eisner, the park opened on May 1, 1989, as the DisneyβMGM Studios Theme Park, and was the third of four theme parks built at Walt Disney World. Spanning 135 acres (55 ha), the park is themed to an idealized version of Hollywood, California, and is dedicated to the imagined worlds from film, television, music, and theater, drawing inspiration from the Golden Age of Hollywood. Disney's Hollywood Studios was initially developed as both a theme park inspired by show business and an operating production studio, with active film and television production services, an animation facility branch, and a functioning backlot. Construction on the combined park and studio began in 1987, but was accelerated when the construction of the similarly themed Universal Studios Florida began a few miles away. The park's production facilities were removed throughout the 2000s, and many of the park's soundstages were retrofitted for newer attractions and guest use. The park's current name took effect in 2008, with the removal of the MGM-branding throughout the park. In the 2010s, the park began to distance itself from the original studio backlot intention and entered a new direction of immersive theming and attraction development inspired by imagined worlds from Hollywood storytellers.
